THE BIG STRIKE.
4 Bitter Fight Probable Notwith.
standing Reports.

There is war along the line of the
Reading railroad in Pennsylvania,
and if the Company can possibly in-
cite the strikers to commit overt acts
it will be done. Five hundred Pink
erton thugs have been engaged to
shoot down the workmen on the first
opportunity, and the scabs have
been given arms by the Company.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, true to their traditions,
are on the side of the Company, and
they are running the engines for
scab trainmen out of Pottsvlle. At
Shamokin there is great excitement
among the workingmen over the
strike. In this place the strike is
general no scabs.
The railroad company is making
Il gre show of fear that violence
will be done their property, and in
order to arouse the cupldlty of pro-
fessional false witnesses, offers a
thousand dollars for evidence that
will convict strikers. Leaders pre-
ferred, of course.
Meanwhile the bosses are paying
their detectives to go among the
strikers and cause a division of
opinion on the ACCESSIBILITY of the
strike. If they can succeed in di-
viding the men, there Will be solid
argument against striking.
If the men stick together, they can
bring the Company to terms. But
there's a hungry army looking for
work. The result of their former
labor is in the hands of the enemy,
and so the bosses can afford to offer
a thousand dollars for periurers.
The railroad company seems to
have full confidence in their ability
to procure scabs but it is not likely
that they can Immediately fill the
places of the strikers. If the loco
motive engineers assisted there would
be a chance for the quick success Of
the strikers. Meanwhile it is a game
of bluff on both sides, with the
chances in favor of the well-fed
bosses.

A SOCIALIST PRESENT.


The ultimate object of political econ
omy and true craftsmanship ought to be
to secure to all citizens who serve society
usefully, either by their mental or man
ual labor, the undivided fruits of their
toll.
Those, however, who dominate in the
halls of Legislature and in the Executive
offices have other objects in view:
They corporate with the unscrupulous
industrial rulers to fleece the people and
to keep them in constant subjugation.
addition, division and silence is their
motto of craftsmanship.
The inevitable result is ignorance,
crowded prisons and crowded poor
houses.
What is to be done?
The workingmen must elect represen-
tatives to the Legislatures, and all public
offices, who are faithful to the cause of
labor.
They must demand the aid of the State
for the organizations of workingmen so
that the wage system, the source of all
evil may be replaced by cooperative
system Of society. &. METZLER.

FIGHTING CHRISTIANS.
The DcNout Folks of kell, bear Cele.
brate Christmas.

A cable dispatch tells of Il novel
Christmas celebration 10y the good
Christian folk of Kellybearc, Ireland.
"Peace on earth, good will to men, "
was the chief motto of the day, but
there were some old issues lyingabout
that required n settlement in the
opinion of the good citizens of Kelly
beare. The Christians of that inter
estlng locality are divided into two
hostile camps, the Catholics and the
Orangemen. The cable dispatch
does not tell what the issues to be
settled were, but they must have
been very important ones, for the
factions were armed with revolvers
and stones, while some of them were
SO thoroughly in earnest that they
ayailed themselves of the services of
the historical brickbat, most
deadly weapon in the cause of holy
religion.
The Orangemen attacked and de-
molishod the house Of priest of the
opposing faction. What crime the
house had committed is suppressed
by the proyokingly boiled down cable
dispatch, Probably it wasa strategic
move to get at the priest. That
gentleman, however, was not at
home-he was out making Christmas
presents to the poor Of the parish.
The ungodly police We're used by
the property owners to interfere in
the matter, and they actually sue.
ceeded in attracting the combined
brickbats of both parties. 1t is not
likely that the fight will be renewed
till next Christmas. A number Of
wakes We're held after the battle was
over, and the brave souls encouraged
on their "long journey home"

SOCIALISTS ON GUARD.

At II Social-Democratic meeting at
Nurnberg, Germany, last week, reso-
lutions were passed protesting against
the proposal before the Reichstag to
place a duty upon foreign corn, and
declaring that, as the deaths of the
Emperor and the Crown Prince
might occur any day, the Social
Democratic Party must be prepared
TO take definite action at the first
favorable opportunity.

TIRED OF THE K. OF l..

A convention Of leather workers
was held ut Buffalo during the past
week, and an international Union
was organized. All the leather CEN
tors in the United States and Canada
were represented. David Moreand,
Of Woburn, Mass, was elected Pres-
dent. 1t seems that the working
men must still stick to that imitation
of royaIty-the Office of President.
